HTML editor
open-in-new
<p>An HTML editor is a program used for editing HTML, the markup of a web page. Although the HTML markup in a web page can be controlled with any text editor, specialized HTML editors can offer convenience, added functionality, and organisation. For example, many HTML editors handle not only HTML, but also related technologies such as CSS, XML and <a href="/facts/JavaScript/XhhIIEsl">JavaScript</a> or ECMAScript. In some cases they also manage communication with remote web servers via FTP and WebDAV, and version control systems such as Subversion or Git. Many word processing, graphic design and page layout programs that are not dedicated to <a href="/facts/Web_design/1uNCN7qE">web design</a>, such as Microsoft Word or Quark XPress, also have the ability to function as HTML editors. </p>
